This work analyses and explains the influence of engine and vehicles constructions to fuel the consumption and emission of harmful gases.
The work states how new innovations, mostly personal vehicles, contribute to increased air pollution and some innovations which contribute to the reduction of air pollutions, which are ignored in the interest of car manufacturers and their profit they make keeping technology as it is.
It is quite explicit, that most of the innovations made on recent manufactured cars are simply done to attract buyers as such modifications improve the vehicle’s performances but do not contribute to green environment. Several examples are stated where it is clearly explained how some existing technologies can be used to reduce the emission of harmful gases as well as some suggestions of modified technologies which would also contribute to the reduction of air pollution.
